  1. Not to mention that there's no one left, not players, coaches or front office, from the team Berglund is pooping on.
  2. Fans are watching from the Oxygen bars on the club level.
  3. Yes and no. Some local stations are still quite profitable. But companies like iHeart and Audacy, who tried to buy thousands of stations a while ago, are in a world of hurt because of debt service.
  4. Sorry if I took your comment the wrong way, like the Buffalo News is the way it is by choice. (I guess it is a choice..the choice of their new crappy owners.) My wife worked for newspapers for years as an editor (and me as a freelance stringer for 3 years) and the combination of bad owners, plus the reality that no one reads papers anymore, even the emergence of Craiglist destroying the want ads pages (a real cash cow) all contributed to this sorry state.
  5. Oh I think he gets paid by Audacy. I don't think he's a full time employee anymore.
  6. Most player and coach quotes are useless. But a good reporter builds relationships with them so that they can get some gold nuggets. What I really want from a hockey reporter is an unbiased but knowledgeable eye telling me what's happening. That's rare.
  7. I'm not sure if the hierarchy but I think Paul works for ch.4 and moonlights with WGR. He was let go by Audacy as a full time reporter a year or two ago. The weird thing about sports journalism these days are the citizen bloggers filling the void that the mainstream media left behind with its staff and budget cuts. Some of them are good, others not so much. You're embarrassed but do you understand what is happening to papers like the Buffalo News nationwide?
  8. I didn't realize the Rock play in Hamilton. I wonder if locals are insulted by still calling the team "Toronto" and not Hamilton, or at least Ontario?
  9. Remind me again, how did the Sabres lose JT Compher?
  10. 😂😂😂😂😂😂
  11. Sorry. Tim Murray isn't a GM in the NHL anymore.
  12. Hard to win when you're outshot almost 2-to-1.
  13. Amerks with a power play with 2:23 left in regulation tied at 2. C'mon boys. Take it.
  14. A high end steak house southwest of Rochester in the boonies. The Cinci callup Passolt is making a case to stay in the A.
  15. I didn't see this thread and started another GDT. Can a mod delete or merge it?
  16. I think part of what Adams means when he talks about players who want to be here are players that focus on playing hockey, not what kind of night life or golfing is available where they play.
  17. Pro tip: Write your questions down. Don't wing it. As for the rest of your take, there's a difference between "not knowing" and having options and waiting to see what shakes out. Are we not past the "Adams is lost" takes?
  18. Ain't that the truth. They are angrier now than during the playoff drought. Fact is getting good is a skill. Winning a title involves some luck.
